	1:08pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @1:06 It's chock full o' good stuff.
	1:09pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:06 Thanks, fred. There's always the archive.
	1:09pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:06 I'll give you a hint. It's a radio show that my dad made in 1985.

	👻 1:13pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:09 I know, but there are always live shows too... Today is also my father's birthday, something I only learned recently through paperwork
	👻 1:14pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:12 Great!
	1:15pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:13 Wow! Tomorrow is Father's Day in the States. Hence the feature. My pop has been gone since 2011. He would have been 101 years old. My mother is still around at age 97.
	1:17pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Animaniacs for 8 Cellos" by "Samara Ginsberg" I never realized before how much the Animaniacs theme sounds like There's a Tavern in the Town.
	👻 1:25pm yerfriendpaul: Hi Krys O! Listening on my back deck now. Sounds good!
	1:26pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:25 Howdy, Paul! It's a pleasure having you with us.
	👻 1:26pm yerfriendpaul: Wow! You played a Paul McMahon tune just as I was writing! That’s my name too. Did I tell you I drove up to Woodstock to meet him/see him perform?
	1:26pm Krys O.: And you're just in time....tee hee.
	1:27pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:26 Yes, you did! It was a life-affirming thang.
	👻 1:27pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @1:27 Amen!!
	👻 1:30pm yerfriendpaul: Nice manatee theme today on the airwaves. Roger played a couple manatee tunes on Double dip this morning!
	1:31pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:30 Holy smokes!
	👻 1:37pm fred: @Krys: Did you ever get him on your show live?
	👻 1:38pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha! 🎶 I’m in Hollywood 🎶
	1:39pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:37 Sadly, no. Dad was still recovering from having a lung removed. I was also on late at night. He lived in Port Chester, NY, a bit of a distance from East Orange, NJ.
	1:40pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:38 My nephew turns 44 years old next month. He has three kids. His wife and kids have this recording too.
	👻 1:40pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @1:40 The kids must love hearing their Dad as a kid! This is so great!
	👻 1:41pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:39 Then again, a cassette made for radio is such a WFMU thing it has to count
	1:41pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:41 The station IDs from this tape were put on carts for the rest of the DJs to play.
	👻 1:43pm yerfriendpaul: A perfect time capsule with the big movies references of that decade (Karate Kid/Rambo)
	👻 1:43pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:41 Major glory!
	1:44pm Krys O.: That voice is my oldest sister's, Stu's mom. You can hear my mother a little bit too.
	1:45pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:43 I had to edit it a bit. There is a He-Man skit that was a little long. Stu loved the Power Rangers too.
	👻 1:46pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha! Ghostbusters!!
	1:46pm Krys O.: BTW-My nephew is a graphic artist now.
	👻 1:47pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @1:46 It’s clear he has a very creative mind!
	1:47pm Krys O.: Clearly my sister and my Mom don't know Ghostbusters.
	👻 1:48pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:46 Does he know you're playing this?
	1:50pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:48 My nephew? I'll text him the link. He's usually really busy with the kids who do sports and dancing and more.
	1:50pm Krys O.: This Engelbert tune is soooo good.
	👻 1:50pm yerfriendpaul: This reminds me of a recording that my Dad made of my brothers and me when we were super young. My brother Joe did a little Donnie and Marie skit and I did an impression of John Wayne, ha ha So great! Enjoying this very much!
	👻 1:51pm fred: This reminds me of Vicki's SwingLargo
	1:51pm Krys O.: Dad would have fit in on Sheena's.
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: Dobar dan, Krys O!
	1:51pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:51 Great! That is a gem.
	1:51pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @1:51 Rich!! Hello dere!
	1:52pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:50 Aw, sweet. Preserve your memories.
	👻 1:53pm fred: This is definitely related to SwingLargo (source or shared roots?)
	1:55pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:53 Yes, that is Engelbert in SwingLargo among other things.
	1:56pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:50 Paul, you might have noticed that my dad is wearing a Mets hat.
	👻 1:57pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @1:56 Ha ha, I was just going to comment on how much l like the photo!
	1:57pm Krys O.: I think I Shazam'd this song once.
	👻 1:58pm fred: "among other things" is kinda the motto of WFMU, no wonder Vicki is such a good fit
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: I'm listening to this show while digitizing some LPs for my pappy.
	1:58pm Krys O.: It is Japanese Breakdown by the Scottdale String Band.
	1:59pm Rich in Washington: ↳ fred @1:58 My copy of PLU's Thermos Explorer reissue just arrived yesterday.
	1:59pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @1:58 Hooray! I used to do that for my Pop. Happy Dad's Day to him. Thermos is a classic.
	2:00pm Krys O.: I was inspired to feature this cassette by hearing Maggie Hertz yesterday morning as I was getting ready for work.
	2:01pm Sem: Hello, Krys, and Coasters.
	2:01pm Krys O.: Hiya, Sem!!
	👻 2:01pm fred: Thanks Krys, time for me to cross streams, what could go wrong?
	2:02pm Krys O.: Many thanks, fred! Take care.
	2:02pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @1:59 My Dad's 94 and chair-ridden and mostly blind so music and audio books are pretty much everything for him.
	2:02pm Krys O.: Dad used to tell me to play more international music on my show.
	2:03pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:02 Bless him!
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: This mix is fantastic!
	👻 2:03pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:50 It just dawned on me, I was probably doing an impression of Rich Little’s impression of John Wayne. I didn’t know John Wayne but Rich Little was all over TV back then
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Cassette for WFMU" by "Paul O" Thanks for sharing that!
	2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:03 He sure was!
	2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:04 Thank you, Rich!
	2:05pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "Cassette for WFMU" by "Paul O" Hello everyone! Hello Krys O! Only heard the last part and it sounded lovely. Will listen to your dad's cassette on the archives. Thank you for playing the cassette your dad made on the show. It is very sweet.
	👻 2:05pm yerfriendpaul: I love your Dad’s recording technique! 2 boom boxes facing each other - perfect!
	2:07pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:05 I'm not sure if my brother told him about it or he just figured it out on his own. We used to say that our father could have been an engineer.
	2:09pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi again, Krys and hi to everybody!
	2:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "You're My Kind of Climate (12" mix)" by "Rip Rig ... Oh yeah!
	2:10pm Krys O.: Hi again, Jan!
	2:12pm Jan Turkenburg: plugged the noise cancelling headphones into the computer. Works perfect. No bad dutch schlager, polka's and pumping basses interferring with your show.
	2:12pm Fred And Alan: Hello Krys O. Fred and Alan. At work on a break. Saw you were on
	2:12pm Krys O.: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:12 Thumbs up!
	2:13pm Krys O.: ↳ Fred And Alan @2:12 Hi, Fred and Alan! Thanks for stopping by. Hope your day goes smooth as can be.
	2:14pm Fred And Alan: Krys O. Fred and Alan love you. You are always on our side
	2:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:09 Jan!
	2:15pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "You're My Kind of Climate (12" mix)" by "Rip Rig ... This is wild. Love it.
	2:16pm Krys O.: Howdy, Mr. Oxford!
	2:18pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	2:19pm Krys O.: Barno, welcome!
	2:21pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Krys O. @2:16 Hey there, Krys O! I have to honest I've never known how to respond to howdy. Once in Western Canada someone said "howdy" to me and I responded "hey I'm good, how are you?". He then responded "That's not how you respond to howdy". I forgot to ask him what was the correct way to respond to howdy then. Anyway, that was my unnecessarily long and boring 'howdy' story.
	2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:21 Oof! I wasn't aware of any protocol. I just think of Minnie Pearl's How-DEEEEEE! I'm so proud to be here.
	2:27pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Krys O. @2:23 Haha ok, I am just looking up Minnie Pearl. Was not aware of her or the Hee Haw show. Seems interesting. Will check it out after Wired Up!
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:27 We were forced to watch Hee Haw - and my 'forced', I mean it was on on the only teevee in the house every Saturday night and if the teevee's on, our little kid eyes were glued to it if we liked the show or not.
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:30 strangely I like watching Hee Haw now.
	2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:30 Aw, dang it. We watched Ed Sullivan, Lassie, Adam-12, Lawrence Welk and such as a family. Hee-Haw was something I came to on my own in the early 70s. Roy Clark's musicianship fascinated me. He was cute as a button too. My mother and I used to watch the Bobby Vinton show and laugh at him. :D I like Vinton's early music thought.
	2:38pm Barno in Akron: ↳ Krys O. @2:19 Howdy, Krys!
	👻 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: We’d watch Hee Haw before bath time. I just recently went to Nashville and visited the Country Music HoF. There was a section dedicated to Hee Haw. All the people’s clothing and instruments. Junior’s overalls, Grandpa Jone’s outfit, Buck Owen’s red white and blue guitar was close by too (he had his own section)
	2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 I was unaware of Buck's previous success when I was a kid. Roy had a hit in 1969 with Yesterday When I Was Young.
	2:42pm Mr. Oxford: I am now remembering where else I have heard about Hee Haw. It was referenced in a bit by comedian Bill Hicks. Other than that, hadn't hear of it. Of course it's because I am quite young and not from the US. I have a strange love-hate relationship with country music but I am fascinated by the music and atleast some aspects of the culture (especially retro/vintage things). So Hee Haw does seem interesting to me. I tried watching The Marty Stuart Show once - it was not for me.
	2:44pm Rich in Washington: If I went to stay with my grandparents, we would be 'forced' to watch The Lawrence Welk Show. Not THAT was torturous, even for a tiny kid.
	2:44pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:44 Flip Wilson and Laugh-In were palate cleansers.
	2:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for the fun this afternoon, Krys O.
	2:45pm Krys O.: I've seen Wait Until Dark quite a few times, but only recently did I really listen to the theme song.
	2:46pm Krys O.: Hello, Ken and thanks!!
	👻 2:47pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 It was years and years later when I started to embrace early country music and it finally registered how incredibly talented they were
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:47 My ex's father was a famous session musician in Nashville. I got to hear some behind the scenes stories back then. I appreciated folk music and country just seemed to follow from that. We listened to a lot of Polish music on WLIB radio in the 60s and 70s. I keep my ears open.
	2:50pm Jan Turkenburg: ↳ Song: "A Lover's Concerto" by "The Toys" ah, a little Johann Sebastian Bach!😁
	2:51pm Krys O.: Some of the songs I played today are based on classical music like this Toys song. Even Perry Como's Hot Diggity was based on a classical piece. I even like opera. :)
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:50 It's actually Christian Petzold. Close.
	👻 2:53pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:49 So cool that you got some behind-the-scenes stories!
	2:55pm Jan Turkenburg: Thanks Krys, I'll catch the first part in the archives!
	2:55pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you, Krys O!
	2:55pm Krys O.: Thank you, all for stopping by! Take care!
	👻 2:56pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Krys O! Take care, everyone!
	2:56pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Wonderfully unique show today (as per usual) - always with your distinct ID prints. Much appreciated. (Gotta catch up with Jane Siberry … she’s transformed herself over the years). Always been a follower. Even latter days.✌️
	👻 2:57pm WR: Thank you! Krys!
	2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ Erik-O-Vert (VT) @2:56 Thanks, Erik!
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Krys O! See you on the radio!
	2:58pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Oh forgot to particularly appreciate the sharing of taped family recording. Brings back So many of my own family memories ! 🙏
	2:58pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:57 Be seeing you!
	6:23pm Your ex: Be seeing me!

	👻 2:01pm fred: Thanks Krys, time for me to cross streams, what could go wrong?
	2:02pm Krys O.: Many thanks, fred! Take care.
	2:02pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @1:59 My Dad's 94 and chair-ridden and mostly blind so music and audio books are pretty much everything for him.
	2:02pm Krys O.: Dad used to tell me to play more international music on my show.
	2:03pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:02 Bless him!
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: This mix is fantastic!
	👻 2:03pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:50 It just dawned on me, I was probably doing an impression of Rich Little’s impression of John Wayne. I didn’t know John Wayne but Rich Little was all over TV back then
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Cassette for WFMU" by "Paul O" Thanks for sharing that!
	2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:03 He sure was!
	2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:04 Thank you, Rich!
	2:05pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "Cassette for WFMU" by "Paul O" Hello everyone! Hello Krys O! Only heard the last part and it sounded lovely. Will listen to your dad's cassette on the archives. Thank you for playing the cassette your dad made on the show. It is very sweet.
	👻 2:05pm yerfriendpaul: I love your Dad’s recording technique! 2 boom boxes facing each other - perfect!
	2:07pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:05 I'm not sure if my brother told him about it or he just figured it out on his own. We used to say that our father could have been an engineer.
	2:09pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi again, Krys and hi to everybody!
	2:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "You're My Kind of Climate (12" mix)" by "Rip Rig ... Oh yeah!
	2:10pm Krys O.: Hi again, Jan!
	2:12pm Jan Turkenburg: plugged the noise cancelling headphones into the computer. Works perfect. No bad dutch schlager, polka's and pumping basses interferring with your show.
	2:12pm Fred And Alan: Hello Krys O. Fred and Alan. At work on a break. Saw you were on
	2:12pm Krys O.: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:12 Thumbs up!
	2:13pm Krys O.: ↳ Fred And Alan @2:12 Hi, Fred and Alan! Thanks for stopping by. Hope your day goes smooth as can be.
	2:14pm Fred And Alan: Krys O. Fred and Alan love you. You are always on our side
	2:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:09 Jan!
	2:15pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Song: "You're My Kind of Climate (12" mix)" by "Rip Rig ... This is wild. Love it.
	2:16pm Krys O.: Howdy, Mr. Oxford!
	2:18pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	2:19pm Krys O.: Barno, welcome!
	2:21pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Krys O. @2:16 Hey there, Krys O! I have to honest I've never known how to respond to howdy. Once in Western Canada someone said "howdy" to me and I responded "hey I'm good, how are you?". He then responded "That's not how you respond to howdy". I forgot to ask him what was the correct way to respond to howdy then. Anyway, that was my unnecessarily long and boring 'howdy' story.
	2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:21 Oof! I wasn't aware of any protocol. I just think of Minnie Pearl's How-DEEEEEE! I'm so proud to be here.
	2:27pm Mr. Oxford: ↳ Krys O. @2:23 Haha ok, I am just looking up Minnie Pearl. Was not aware of her or the Hee Haw show. Seems interesting. Will check it out after Wired Up!
	2:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr. Oxford @2:27 We were forced to watch Hee Haw - and my 'forced', I mean it was on on the only teevee in the house every Saturday night and if the teevee's on, our little kid eyes were glued to it if we liked the show or not.
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:30 strangely I like watching Hee Haw now.
	2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:30 Aw, dang it. We watched Ed Sullivan, Lassie, Adam-12, Lawrence Welk and such as a family. Hee-Haw was something I came to on my own in the early 70s. Roy Clark's musicianship fascinated me. He was cute as a button too. My mother and I used to watch the Bobby Vinton show and laugh at him. :D I like Vinton's early music thought.
	2:38pm Barno in Akron: ↳ Krys O. @2:19 Howdy, Krys!
	👻 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: We’d watch Hee Haw before bath time. I just recently went to Nashville and visited the Country Music HoF. There was a section dedicated to Hee Haw. All the people’s clothing and instruments. Junior’s overalls, Grandpa Jone’s outfit, Buck Owen’s red white and blue guitar was close by too (he had his own section)
	2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 I was unaware of Buck's previous success when I was a kid. Roy had a hit in 1969 with Yesterday When I Was Young.
	2:42pm Mr. Oxford: I am now remembering where else I have heard about Hee Haw. It was referenced in a bit by comedian Bill Hicks. Other than that, hadn't hear of it. Of course it's because I am quite young and not from the US. I have a strange love-hate relationship with country music but I am fascinated by the music and atleast some aspects of the culture (especially retro/vintage things). So Hee Haw does seem interesting to me. I tried watching The Marty Stuart Show once - it was not for me.
	2:44pm Rich in Washington: If I went to stay with my grandparents, we would be 'forced' to watch The Lawrence Welk Show. Not THAT was torturous, even for a tiny kid.
	2:44pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:44 Flip Wilson and Laugh-In were palate cleansers.
	2:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for the fun this afternoon, Krys O.
	2:45pm Krys O.: I've seen Wait Until Dark quite a few times, but only recently did I really listen to the theme song.
	2:46pm Krys O.: Hello, Ken and thanks!!
	👻 2:47pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 It was years and years later when I started to embrace early country music and it finally registered how incredibly talented they were
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:47 My ex's father was a famous session musician in Nashville. I got to hear some behind the scenes stories back then. I appreciated folk music and country just seemed to follow from that. We listened to a lot of Polish music on WLIB radio in the 60s and 70s. I keep my ears open.
	2:50pm Jan Turkenburg: ↳ Song: "A Lover's Concerto" by "The Toys" ah, a little Johann Sebastian Bach!😁
	2:51pm Krys O.: Some of the songs I played today are based on classical music like this Toys song. Even Perry Como's Hot Diggity was based on a classical piece. I even like opera. :)
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @2:50 It's actually Christian Petzold. Close.
	👻 2:53pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:49 So cool that you got some behind-the-scenes stories!
	2:55pm Jan Turkenburg: Thanks Krys, I'll catch the first part in the archives!
	2:55pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you, Krys O!
	2:55pm Krys O.: Thank you, all for stopping by! Take care!
	👻 2:56pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Krys O! Take care, everyone!
	2:56pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Wonderfully unique show today (as per usual) - always with your distinct ID prints. Much appreciated. (Gotta catch up with Jane Siberry … she’s transformed herself over the years). Always been a follower. Even latter days.✌️
	👻 2:57pm WR: Thank you! Krys!
	2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ Erik-O-Vert (VT) @2:56 Thanks, Erik!
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Krys O! See you on the radio!
	2:58pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): Oh forgot to particularly appreciate the sharing of taped family recording. Brings back So many of my own family memories ! 🙏
	2:58pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:57 Be seeing you!
	6:23pm Your ex: Be seeing me!
